Discovering Disney World Hotels And History Of Parks

By Frances Kelly


The Disney World complex in Bay Lake and Buena Vista, Florida is located near Orlando. While there are several hotels in these areas, not all are disney world hotels, though some do offer the same benefits. While the area surrounding Disney World originally had a different owner, the area is now owned and operated by Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, a subsidiary of the original owner.

The resort currently host several live music venues, a camping resort, golf courses and nine hotels. Whereas, there are also 27 hotels, 4 theme parks and 2 water parks which are part of, and owned by the resort. In addition, whether taking a shuttle or traveling by mono-rail, there is great transportation when it comes from traveling to and from each park.

Originally designed to supplement Disneyland out of Anaheim, California, a park which opened in the mid-1950s, the complex was designed by Walt in the 1960s. Known originally as the Florida project, the intention was to have a diverse and separate identity to that of the park in California.

One of the highlights of the resort is that of EPCOT, which was in the plans from the beginning phase of the project. For, the Experimental Prototype of Tomorrow was a vision which Walt had long hoped of sharing with the world. Now, it is only one of four amusement parks in the complex.

Before Walt could begin work on the Florida Project, it took a great deal of lobbying before the Reed Creek Improvement district became a reality. After which, Disney gained the rights to become an incorporated city. Sadly, Walt passed away before the work began and never lived to see the completion of the project. Later, the company began creating a resort akin to that of the location in California.

The company abandoned the early concepts which Walt brought to the table. After with construction began on Magic Kingdom which later opened in 19721. EPCOT was completed in 1982, Animal Kingdom in 1998 and Hollywood Studios in 1989. Animal Kingdom is the newest park in the complex. Whereas, the new Star Wars Experience is on track to be the most visited attraction in the park.

Currently, the resort continues to be one of the most popular attractions in America. With millions in attendance each year, the resort remains a destination for vacationers, corporations, schools and others. As such, it has become a staple with regards to American culture.

A number of long distance travelers prefer to stay at the on-site hotels. For, most offer free transportation between hotel and airport and park entrances. In addition, there are all-inclusive packages which also include park admission and other benefits such as dining passes and all you can drink glasses.

While this is the case, travelers can also find a number other hotels in the vicinity, some which will also provide shuttles to and from the airport and parks. As such, the value of these all-inclusive packages can often be great for corporations, schools and families. Whereas, individuals, especially those whom are members of AARP or AAA, may want to opt for staying at a local non-Disney hotel. For, there are often discounts from these organizations with regards to hotel stay and park admission whether purchasing a one-day, one-park or multi-day, multi-park ticket.
